Aaron Valdivia

I received my MLS in fall 2007 from the School of Information Resources and Library Science (SIRLS) at the University of Arizona. I owe much of my success to the support I received as a recipient of the Knowledge River scholarship offered through SIRLS. During school I was an active officer in SIRLS' Library Student Organization and a member of REFORMA. In Spring 2007 our Library Student Organization was awarded the ALA Student Chapter of the Year Award and I was lucky enough to be selected to travel to Washington DC to accept the award at the ALA annual conference.

Currently I serve as a Young Adult Services Librarian at Pima County Public Library in Tucson, Arizona. I am also still active with REFORMA and serve as co-editor of the REFORMA newsletter outside of work.
